New Strawberry, 



Cms NEW .Seedling Strawberry has proven to be one of the finest varie- 

 ties ever introduced, and we predict that it will become a popular favo- 

 rite amon^j all growers and cons\imers of strawberries, particularly 

 amonK those who desire the most uiiiformly, handsome and larRe, richly 

 colored, dcliKhtfuUy flavored strawbcriy for the home table. Henderson s 

 "Great Ruby" fills all of these requiren ents in a superlative dcKree. In our 

 fifty years of experience in testing, (jrowing and hybridizing: strawberries, 

 there has been no variety that we could send out with the abidini; confidence 

 that we have in Henderson's "Great Ri by," province hiRhly satisfactory to 

 all purchasers. The healthy, vigorous irrowtn, remarkable productiveness, 

 immense size, handsome uniform shape, deep lustrous crimson color, and, 

 above all, the rich luscious flavor combined with the dcligjhtful aroma, ren- 

 der Henderson's "Great Ruby" peerless among strawberries. It commences 

 to ripen soon after the early varieties, and bears until nearly all others are 

 Kone. The luxuriant growth of the plant and its remarkable deep-rootinpr 

 qualities enable it to produce beautiful large berries even during a dry season 

 when other varieties are withered and truitless. Price, (Pnt-ip-own plants 

 that -via hi-ar a /-.ill crcp of fruit next season), $l.'i5 per doz. : $8.06 per 100.
